J&J COLLECTING PROJECT#1 <br /> HARD ROCK/METAL MINING <br /> LIMITED IMPACT OPERATION (110(1)) <br /> RECLAMATION PERMIT APPLICATION <br /> 6.3.2 EXHIBIT B—SITE DESCRIPTION <br /> 6.3.2 (a) <br /> General: Each of the following sites has varying levels of disturbance from previous digs. These <br /> dig sites were chosen because they reveal the presence of pegmatite structures.All sites are at an <br /> elevation between 8500 and 8600 feet.All the proposed dig sites in this permit application are <br /> gradually sloping, at no more than a 6:1 ratio. <br /> Site 001: (NAD27) 39° O'57.5"N 105°19'5.7"W <br /> Site 001 on the New Hawk lode claim has moderate disturbance from previous digs. The area had <br /> some damage from the Hayman fire, killing mostly the larger Timbre. There are a handful of small <br /> pines that have recently come back and are about 1 to 3 feet tall. Some small Aspens groves can be <br /> found to the north and south of the digs. Bunch grasses are also well established and there is some <br /> wax currant. Site 001 has very good soil representation overall up to 5-6 inches thick with some <br /> vegetation and an organic layer. This area is relatively flat(sloping is roughly 7:1) and so the soil <br /> has been protected from erosion. <br /> Site 002: (NAD27) 39' O'58.3"N 105°19'10.6."W <br /> Site 002 on the New Hawk lode claim has moderate disturbance from a previous dig. Like the <br /> other two sites, the area surrounding site 003 was damaged by the Hayman fire, killing some of the <br /> larger timbre, though a few scattered pines remain mostly to the south-west and north-east of the <br /> dig site. The surrounding area consists predominately of bunch grasses, yucca and possibly <br /> Mullein. Site 003 also has relatively thin soil roughly 3-4 inches thick composed of loose gravel <br /> with a moderate-to-thin organic layer. <br /> Site 003: (NAD27) 39' O'57.22"N 105°19'11.65"W <br /> Site 003 on the New Hawk lode claim has mild disturbance from a previous dig. This area was <br /> damaged by the Hayman fire, killing much of the larger timbre, though a few scattered pines <br /> remain. The surrounding area consists predominately of bunch grasses and yucca. This site has <br /> relatively thin soil roughly 3-4 inches thick. The top layer is loose gravel with a thin organic layer. <br /> Site 004: (NAD27) 39' O'54.7"N 105°19'28.3"W <br />
